Scammer actually wants your merchandise
The Scammer will send email saying that he wants to buy your 'item' and will tell you he will pay through Paypal
This will be followed by a FAKE email from Paypal telling you that your paypal account will be credited as soon as you send the shipping number.
The scammer sends very elaborate and convincing screen shots of Paypal emails.
Paypal will never hold a sellers money until a shipping receipt has been provided.
Once you have shipped your merchandise, it it very hard to stop and retrieve.
Sellers should always personally verify payment before shipping merchandise
